At Canfield Local Schools, we are committed to educating the WHOLE child. We believe that social and emotional wellness is the foundation for academic learning, upon which happy, healthy futures are built. Our staff of masters-level licensed school counselors in collaboration with local mental health professionals and resources, hope to educate and support not just our current Cardinals but their families. It truly takes a village to inspire change, so we invite you to join us in breaking the stigma of mental health and start a new conversation at Canfield.
